Plaintiffs, Mexican guest workers, allege they were brought to the U.S. and forced to work for defendants in substandard conditions, often without compensation, and through force and intimidation by defendants' weapons. Plaintiffs came to the U.S. on H-2B visas. Plaintiffs alleged they were forced to live on land controlled by defendants and their visas and passports were taken away. Defendants threatened plaintiffs with deportation and did not allow them to pay off debt owed from rent, transportation, and visas. The parties settled before trial.
